Officer Down
Punk Rock
Steinbach, Manitoba, Canada
“These guys were from Steinbach. They had these incredibly melodic parts on their hardcore, something I can’t seem to pin point in any other band.
The band formed in 1997 and recorded a demo, which was already well talked about. They were contacted by Goodfellow Records, which would be the labels very first release, a split 7” with Puritan in 1997. Later that year they also appeared on the labels compilation The Difference Between Us. The song would also appear on the bands only album Subversive Paradigm. A total masterpiece.
They were set to record an ep in late 1999, but I don’t think they got that far.
Steve Dueck and John Paul Peters went on to form The Undecided.“
